Scored my first bird yesterday

[xarcher]

19.7 pounds, 1.25 spurs, 10.75 beard.  Still on the hunting trip.  Will post details and pics when I get home.  I think that adds up to 66 points and change.  Oh and I made sure I had scale and tape measure in my pack.

I was hunting property for the very first time so had to start from scratch.  There is a total of 3000 acres so my buddies and I just split up the property on the map and took off in the morning.  It was foggy and rainy in the SC lowlands and I didn't hear a peep from sun up until 8 AM.  Heard a faint gobble off in the distance and naturally put a move on.  20 minutes later after stopping, calling, listening and moving, I had 4 longbeards come in on a string, but only 3 got away.
